Answer:

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity

Explanation:

As we know that plastic ball is suspended by a string which makes 30 degree angle with the vertical

So here force due to electrostatic force on the charged ball is in horizontal direction along the direction of electric field

while weight of the ball is vertically downwards

so here we have

QE = F_x

mg = F_y

since string makes 30 degree angle with the vertical so we will have

tan\theta = \frac{F_x}{F_y}

tan30 = \frac{QE}{mg}

Q = \frac{mg}{E}tan30

Q = \frac{0.012\times 9.81}{E} tan30

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity

Why does a hot air balloon fall when the air inside is not heated​
trapecia [35]
A hot air balloon rises in the first place because the air inside is hot, which rises. So, if the air inside is not heated, it fails to rise and falls. Warm air rises because the particles get excited and jiggle with the heat, and cause the air to take up more space. So, as the surrounding air is probably colder and denser, the less dense hot air rises up in the hot air balloon.
